Description:
Brief item from the US Marshalls about a man who got his wife to testify to his “drowning.” A search in a general search engine for Matthew Alan Shepard brought up a long interview in Wired at http://www.wired.com/vanish/2009/08/evans-interview-with-matthew-sheppard-about-disappearing-its-like-dying/ where he talks about his experience and what some of his perceived mistakes were.
Although the Wired interview isn’t government information by any stretch of the imagination, this US Marshall’s press release shows how a government document can be a good start to finding related information.
